I too have a card collection of every poster here.
DHS and ICE feel like they are being groomed to do trump's bidding.
Why should our police and border patrol be trained by IDF? Why is everything so militarized? It makes them view citizens lawfully protesting or at traffic stops as literal enemy combatants.
But Townie, if they don’t brutalize their fellow Americans, they may not make it home and that is their top priority.
Another serious answer is that Americans are armed to the teeth.

The Rev. Frederick D. Haynes III, senior pastor of Friendship West Baptist Church, went live on Facebook Sunday afternoon with a blatant message for the group.
“Blue lives matter, or whatever you’re talking about?” Haynes says in the video. “Let me just say this right now: At this point, if you ain’t saying ‘Black Lives Matter,’ you might as well have a klan rally.”

Haynes adds this message for the rally participants:
“Now is the time to divest from policing systems and invest communities. You want your lives to matter, blue? Then that’s what you do. You invest in our community instead of trying to intimidate our community. ‘Cause we ain’t the ones to be intimidated.”
Why is it needed in a government building in Michigan?
Why the fuck is it needed period? you GOP nincompoops keep that shit legal with all your might
Or them thar “Back the Blue” folks, and their sympathizers, are merely a bunch of passionate and solidly misguided idiots apparently unable to feel or demonstrate appropriate empathy and humanity.
TLDR: they’re idiots and assholes.
[the first thing that someone says pops into their mind is not an “equation”.]
A "Back the Blue" rally with Confederate flags and Trump flags showed up in the parking lot of a predominantly Black church that proudly waves a Black Lives Matter banner. The video from the pastor is worth of a listen.

Hard to interpret "Back the Blue" and Confederate flags and Trump flags showing up to a church with predominantly Black congregation as anything except a threat. The first thing that popped into my mind reading that article was Dylann Roof sitting in that prayer meeting at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston.
sounds like a bad management decision to me. if it was so effective, why they choose that program to cut ?
